Accessibility Statement
Everyone deserves a smooth and equal experience. And that is why Louisville Web Lab believes a website should never be a barrier. It should be a bridge.
Whether someone is hiring our designers and developers, learning about your services, or just reading a blog post, they should be able to do so easily and with confidence, no matter what device they are using or what abilities they have.
Accessibility is not a feature. It is the standard we hold ourselves to. And we take it seriously.
Why Accessibility Matters To Us
We build websites for real people. That means people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds. We know not everyone experiences the web the same way. Some may rely on screen readers. Others may use voice commands or need keyboard-friendly navigation. And some may deal with visual, motor, or cognitive challenges that many of us never even think about.
We believe websites should welcome everyone. No exceptions.
Creating digital spaces that are open, easy to use, and thoughtfully built is not just a nice thing to do. It is the right thing to do.
What We Are Doing About It
We have woven accessibility into our entire approach, from design to development to launch and beyond. This includes:
-
Designing with clarity and simplicity so things are easy to see, read, and understand
-
Making sure the color contrast is strong enough for people with low vision
-
Adding alt text for images so screen readers can describe them
-
Ensuring keyboard navigation works smoothly for users who do not use a mouse
-
Structuring content with proper headings and labels to help assistive tech make sense of the page
-
Avoiding animations or flashing elements that could cause discomfort or seizures
-
Testing our websites across a wide range of devices and assistive tools
​
We also follow best practices based on the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), which help keep everything up to par for as many users as possible.
Tools and Tech That Help
Here, we use modern tools to check how accessible a site really is. We do not just rely on guesswork or pretty visuals. We run manual checks and use tools like:
-
Screen readers to test voice navigation
-
Browser extensions that check color contrast and heading structure
-
Code validators that catch accessibility issues early
-
Keyboard-only navigation tests
-
Real-user feedback from folks who use assistive technology every day
This helps us spot problems that automated tools sometimes miss. It also helps us learn and do better every time.
Accessibility Is A Journey
Even the best-designed websites can always improve. The world of digital access keeps evolving, and so do the needs of users. That is why we treat accessibility as an ongoing mission, not a one-time checklist.
If you notice something on our site that is hard to use or just does not feel right, we want to know. You are not bothering us. You are helping us do what we are here to do- build better, more inclusive websites for everyone.
Helping Clients Create Accessible Websites Too
The sites we build for our clients are not just fast and beautiful. We also bake accessibility into the core of every site we make.
That means when you hire us, you are not just getting a solid online presence, you are getting a site that more people can actually use.
From custom-built sites to templated designs, we apply the same thoughtful practices to make sure your audience can engage, shop, read, and contact you without barriers. And if you have specific accessibility needs, we will gladly work with you to make sure everything fits.
Accessibility For Small Businesses
We get it. Accessibility might sound like something that is only for big corporations with huge budgets and compliance teams. But the truth is, every business can make simple changes that make a big difference.
Small businesses are the heartbeat of our community. And your customers should not struggle just to read your menu or book a service. That is why we help our local businesses here in Louisville and beyond understand and apply accessibility in a way that makes sense for them.
